The ScrapingAntLoader also allows providing a dict - scraping config for customizing the scrape request. As it is based on the [ScrapingAnt Python SDK](https://github.com/ScrapingAnt/scrapingant-client-python) you can pass any of the [common arguments](https://github.com/ScrapingAnt/scrapingant-client-python) to the `scrape_config` parameter.

```python
from langchain_community.document_loaders import ScrapingAntLoader

scrapingant_config = {
    "browser": True,  # Enable browser rendering with a cloud browser
    "proxy_type": "datacenter",  # Select a proxy type (datacenter or residential)
    "proxy_country": "us",  # Select a proxy location
}

scrapingant_additional_config_loader = ScrapingAntLoader(
    ["https://scrapingant.com/"],
    api_key="<YOUR_SCRAPINGANT_TOKEN>",  # Get your API key from https://scrapingant.com/
    continue_on_failure=True,  # Ignore unprocessable web pages and log their exceptions
    scrape_config=scrapingant_config,  # Pass the scrape_config object
)
```
